Should I get Gramlights 57S or a set of Wedsport SA70's either way I will be using BF Goodridge G Force T/A KDW Tires. I am going to stick with 17" wheels as they look great. Just my main concern is the weight issue 57s weigh 17.6 lbs and SA70's weigh 20.8 lbs( that almost as much as stock wheels) I want something lighter

Hmmmm ....
You got those in stock?

 

to expensive trying to keep it under 1500

 

You may want to look into the 57C's. I think they are little bit lighter and I think they look better than the 57S's. Enkei RPF1's are nice and reasonable too.

 

5zigen FN01R-C???

17's or 18's are both right around the 17-18lb ballpark

 

ssr comps

 

i wouldnt get the weds because they are pretty heavy. what about some work emotion cr kai's? i think the kai's are a lil lighter than the regualer cr's and emotions always look good

 

yeah The wedsports are heavy but they are lighter than the stock wheels and they look good. I looked at Work Emotion Kai but they run 1200 without tires

Light, cheap, strong. Choose 2. Personally, I would stay far away from light and cheap...

Exactly. I would run stock for awhile and save, then get some NICE wheels. Are you looking to spend $1500 WITH rubber?

 

I wanna run kdw's so I know in 17" they are like 500 bucks so I probally buy wheels in the price range of 1000 to 1500

Forget the cast FN01R-C get the forged FN01R's. 16's were $380 per wheel, and 11.6 lbs

 

17" WED SA90s are 20lbs each... thats about 1lb lighter than stock lol

on the other hand. . .

you can get WedsSport TC005 17" that weigh 14.6lbs each


add tires and your lookin like $1,600.00 (before shipping) and those are Kumho 711's (so while not the best tires its $100 over your budget for decent tires and a good lookin light weight 17" rim

 

I like the 9 spoke wedspots better than those wheels and they weigh just about the same

 

wow, 14lbs for a 17" rim, who knew. PLEASE tell the bitches in the ITR forum that tires have weight too, they refuse to use anything other than a 15.

 

57c's

just for you patna




the only reason i posted a picture is just to show you that 20lbs and 14.6lbs are not the same weight. . .

14.6x4 = 58.4
20x4 = 80

thats a 21.6lb difference

in regards to this, i agree with you, however, 17" is not practical for a DC2... my pesonal preference is going ony as big as a 16" rim on a DC2.... but yeah

 

I know what you saying but you even read what I said. I said the 9 spoke wheels from wedsport ( sa-70) weigh in at 16.5 for 17x7.5" and 17 for 17x8 I was just stating that they weigh about the same as the wheels you showed me

 

just give it up craig lol
